10 years ago I was at the Shepherd's Conference in Southern California.
10 years ago I had just quit my job and was going into business myself at The Firm and was never, ever going back to my last industry.
10 years ago I had decided that we would be moving to a different house.
10 years ago I only had two clann.
10 years ago I lived in Old Home and had no intention of leaving (ever).
10 years ago I was sure I understand God's plan for my life.
BUT...
10 years ago I did not have Nighean Dhonn.
10 years ago I did not throw cabers or stones.
10 years ago I did not practice iaijutsu.
10 years ago I had not written a book (or even a blog post!).
10 years ago I did not know half of the people I know now and my life was not the richer for it.
10 years ago I did not have a dog, rabbits, a guinea pig, a hamster, and a bird.
10 years ago I had not been married to The Ravishing Mrs. TB for 10 more years.
10 years ago I did not realize that I could do almost anything that I put my mind to.
It is funny the difference 10 years can make.
What's a Nighean Dhonn?
ReplyDeleteThe name of my youngest daughter (well, not really of course, just how I refer to her here). It is Gaelic for "Brown (haired) girl".
